Global LiDAR land elevation data reveal greatest sea-level rise vulnerability in the tropics

A. Hooijer and R. Vernimmen

This groundbreaking research by A. Hooijer and R. Vernimmen uncovers that a staggering 62% of the world's vulnerable land, at risk from sea-level rise, lies in the tropics. With millions facing heightened flood risk by 2100, this study is essential for understanding our future coastal challenges.
